Bennet already starting his new job: Helping Udall

U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet will help Democrats around the country in his new job chairing the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee.

WASHINGTON — Sen. Michael Bennet’s new job as chair of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee carries heavy responsibility to fundraise and recruit Democrats across the country to run and win back Senate seats in 2014.

He accepted the job earlier this week, but his first public event officially starts Friday helping one of his own in Colorado: Sen. Mark Udall.

Bennet and his wife, Susan Daggett, are hosting Udall’s official kickoff fundraiser of his 2014 Senate race at Kevin Taylor’s at The Opera House at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts.

Hosts must donate or raise $5,000, co-hosts must donate or raise $2,500 and individuals must give $1,000, according to the invitation.

Udall doesn’t have an official Republican opponent yet, but strategists on both sides have tossed out a few early names: former Congressman Bob Beauprez, Weld County District Attorney Ken Buck (who ran and lost against Bennet two years ago), and Republican Rep. Cory Gardner from Yuma.

When I was a DPS teacher and lived in CO, I had an abiding distrust of Senator Bennet. I now live in KS the land of really being distrustful of elected officials esp the GOP. Not that it matters, but I will back off dislike of Bennet if he helps Dems win and has the cooperation in that effort of DeGette, Polis, and other real and genuine Democrats in CO. Now Bennet may come to KS and help us unseat some total idiots who currently hold US Senate seats. Please.

Both Bennett and Udall have ignored Citizens in Colorado while an entity implementing a Federal Program participates in taking and changing Contracts attached to other citizen’s Property Titles without their Knowledge or Consent depriving them of the use and benefit. It is sad when a person can steal a toaster and be arrested, but take a document affecting value and marketability of Millions of dollars worth of property violating laws and there is no similar justice. They have stood by while innocent middle class families in this State
are financially ruined one family had invested $384,000 in their home and sold few months later for $245,000 a loss of $139,000. The next ones in line being violated include two legally disabled families.

So when will the violating of innocent families stop with regards to the number one most expensive item which most Americans invest … a family home? This entity even when laws are violated because they have deeper pockets they refuse to return and instead their attitude is sue me. Citizens are then inherently disadvantaged, particularly when bargaining with large corporations and after spending hundreds of thousands on a family
home then must come up with possibly $100,000+ for legal litigation when they did nothing wrong.

Join me in writing to our Legislators that Citizens need the same avenue of justice to pursue as the person who owns a toaster which is worth a lot less money than a family home. I have written asking for something similar to Identity Theft such as the following:

“Whoever, with intent to obtain property knowingly participates in changing, without lawful authority, a contract attached to Real Property of another person with the intent to commit, or to aid or abet, or in connection with, any unlawful activity that constitutes a violation of Federal law, or that constitutes a felony or fraud under any applicable State or Local Law, shall face fines or imprisonment for … “

How many more innocent families are going to be financially raped before legislators step up and finally support We the People. So far the innocent victims have been ignored by Bennett and Udall and it is YOUR tax dollars funding the Government program violating fellow citizens.

Obviously, the great unwashed (us) will not be at that ritzy party. Perhaps Udall is not a man of the people.
